Tbh Jomboy’s analytics are biased because pitchers have a higher chance of facing the lineup a third time through if they already do good against the second time. So what Jomboy should’ve done is looked at second time through stats in games pitchers pitched to batters a third time vs third time through stats. That being said, I still think it was a bad move.

You mean Cash looks at Snells pedigree and sees he hasnt completed more than 6 inning in over 4 years?

So true.

"A meltdown"

He is the biggest mistake

Dave Roberts have done it for years.

Exactly. He's gotten away with so much by just having all the talent he's had. He's terrible in my opinion.

Robert's just got lucky, for once. He lifted Kershaw in game One after throwing just 78 pitches in 6 innings. I was cursing him up and down for that and still am !...

yeah another thing, MLB predicted that the WS would come down to the manager who made the first mistake, or a mistake and that was Cash

Facts only

Roberts is always a bad manager. He should have multiple, full season rings with that payroll. Dodgers management still hasn't figured that out 😂😂

Snell was awesome

I was picturing him having a movie type moment and pitching the whole game- that would of been insane

Like when you playing kick ball with you neighbor and every time its your turn to kick your neighbor gets really tired and says he can hear his Mom calling his name....

Who’s Blake Snell

He needed a game like this too, and the coach decides to do this.

TB wasn't even expected to perform well or get to PO, but they did and a lot of it is thanks to Cash. But since he "messed" up TB's not very deserving win (where Rays had zero offense, and was just clinging to the idea that they'll get a no run game against LAD), now everyone wants him gone lmao.

The best manager in baseball you mean

Hows Snell doing now? Lot of walks and high pitch inning eh? Watch him pitch more than 1 game before you call for Cashs job

@@McShibby10 That was the game of his career. World Series on the line, a 5 inning shutout, and you get pulled in the 6th because of a single. And then get traded from the organazation you so desperately wanted to win for, the only major league organazation youve pitched for, and youre sent to the padres. How do you expect him to shake that off eh?

Yeeaaahhh... Hands down, best manager in baseball. And I think this season just solidifies that. This doesn't age well. Maybe it will come October.

With only 70+ pitches thrown. In an elimination game!

Honestly if snell would have given up a homerun after the Barnes single then he would have look liked the stupidest manager ever so you really can’t say shit because y’all complain for everything

@@fernie20_38 how often do you watch baseball? Having a starter taken out after pitching less than 80-pitch, 2-hit scoreless outing and the coach will look stupid because of a two run home run? That'll be a first. Pretty sure we'd be talking about how amazing and clutch the BATTER was in that situation.

@@fernie20_38 No he wouldn't.

He sold it or gave it away the game ..not doubt it

He wanted to outduel Dave Roberts.

True but at the time 93 was really fast. Now we have starting pitchers throwing 98 and that’s not even that fast for some hitters. That’s gotta take a big toll on the arm.

Came back to this video right after the Jays pulled Gausmen when he gave up TWO hits after he pitched 5 killer innings just to lose the game.

@@haydentronnes9539 Jays were up 8-1. What an embarrassment. This never used to happen.

@@23ofSeptember the jays coaching staff did this constantly all season. The starter is killing it for like 4-5 innings with low pitch count still feeling great. They show the tiniest signs of struggle and they get pulled for a third rate reliever. Have some faith in your pitching staff, let them finish the inning. Gausman consistently got himself out of jams all season and this wasn’t even a jam and he still got pulled. The manager just panics and things a cold and nervous rookie reliever will solve all his problems Over Managing at its finest. Let the players play the game lmao

It's like Roberts saw Snell get pulled and thought "No way I'm making that mistake. Urias for the save through 3"

Urias is cracked in the post season no cap

the reverse Pete rose

Manfred calls Cash says “Hey man, Turner has COVID. We’re gonna sit on it til the 8th then pull him. This needs to end tonight so we don’t mess up game 7.” Cash says “Understood, I’ll yank Snell.”

Dave Roberts does this every game and it HURTS me

Finally us Dodgers fans are on the other side of the horrible managerial decisions. Hurts. Best call Roberts made game 6? Didn't bring in Jansen to close.

i was glad to see him making good decision towards the end of nlcs

I'd expect nothing less from a manager that was literally just a pinch runner. Still to this day do not understand how he got that job

Sure buddy Lmao all it took was a Jomboy eval and all of the sudden you're in love.

time to find out how much LA paid this clown to throw

@Catharsis yeah, it’s not like the Dodgers have talent.

That just sounds like a typical clueless big league manager. I watched Mike Socscia do it for 20 years with the Angels and NEVER get right. But he would get lucky sometimes so it would reinforce his amazing intellect I'm sure. He was the poster child for the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over overly day but expecting a different outcome.

@@TheFrenchPug cash uses analytics for everything, he isnt exactly stupid. He made a really dumb decision, but he hasnt been too bad at his decisions as of late. Glasnow needed to eat up some innings, but snell should've stayed in, or at least go to a lefty reliever.

@@pohorex6834 thats the problem he uses analytics for everything, also i didnt see any analytics showing why he should have pulled snell

@Jack Rollo If you want to say that, you can because it's fairly true. Snell this season from the 4th inning on has an ERA of 8.00. First 3 innings? 0.56. (This is 11 regular season starts.)

100% Accurate

It is sort of fitting that Roberts wins on an extremely poor call by the opposing manager.

Excuse me Dusty Baker would like a word on this topic.

Remember when he pulled Rich Hill when he was throwing a no hitter?

@@xavierfranco5800 That was a PERFECT GAME thru 7 full innings and a low pitch count. Not the “worst” but definitely the cruelest and most unnecessary managerial move I’ve ever seen.

I think he did that all by himself.

I don't know if anyone who knows of Jomby that didn't immediately think "WTF is he doing? Hey Jomboy, get ready!!!!".

That's what I said. He doesn't trust his players. I was mad at what he did to yarborough too. We would have won that game.

The Yarbs one actually makes sense because the Rays were in a tight race for the Wild Card and the Seattle batter coming up had power vs lefties and it was only a one run game. That being said, I still support Yarbs facing that last guy

@@pizzajona ya need runs to win a game..Tamp had Rice a Ronies homerun.

@@TheAdrian91706 agreed, but one has to wonder if Roberts would’ve still gone to Urias if the Rays were leading instead of keeping him for Game 7 like he did in the NLCS. If Dodgers didn’t go to Urias then they would’ve had to bring out their B bullpen like Joe Kelly, Kenley Jansen, etc which could’ve sprung the bats into life

Roberts is worse. I don’t know if you guys remember this, but In the World Series VS the Red Sox, he kept putting in “Ryan Madson” who was literally the worst I have ever seen

He doesn't have a better explanation. That is the problem, his decision is not defensible from any position. If he was concerned about being blamed for leaving Snell in too long (which no one would have done anyway at that pitch count) he should have just visited the mound and asked Snell if he wanted the ball and if he was still feeling it. Then it is entirely on Snell and Cash can just point to him if he failed. Bottom line is not only did he make a horrendous decision, he didn't even give Snell an opportunity to argue for staying in despite how amazing he was pitching. It was a game losing managerial decision with nothing to back it. If Cash had come out and said he made a poor decision I think people would be more forgiving, but he flat out went to a defense that just isn't there.

The only reason I can think of is someone offered him money to lose. There's really no other reason unless he's a masochist.

I'd go so far as to say it's not gonna be fun for a lotta bit.

Blake Snell probably would take him out in a fight lmao

He probably wanted to

That video will be coming soon

@@DaveHotChicken ayo fax

Wishful thinking

And then that same manager who couldn't wait to take the starter out will sit there and watch the reliever walk a guy, give up a double, walk another guy, throw a wild pitch, hit a batter and he'll be like "What can I do? I have to trust my guy." It makes zero sense.

@@goodlieutenant8228 oh but the analytics all make sense apparently

@@goodlieutenant8228 no they have to pitch to 3 batters now. they're probably like well we fucked this one.

You know who didn't follow this in a high stakes game: old man Dusty Baker.

Nothing a little “forget me now” can’t cure.

And from Dave Roberts point of view: "Well, that was a freebie."

Actually he’s since doubled down on pulling Snell and specifically replacing him with Anderson.

Checked out the SB Nation Rays board for their thoughts. My sense was that while not what most fans would have wanted, the decision to take out Snell was still defensible: people forget that Snell was also dealing in Game 2... until he gave up a hit and a 2-run HR at around the same pitch count when he got pulled in Game 5 (albeit he did have 4 walks to go with 88 pitches in G2 v. 73 pitches and 0 walks). Not saying pulling Snell was a GOOD call, but it's not as bad as people make it out to be. What's indefensible is bringing in Anderson, who was pretty much gassed and not the lights-out reliever he was during the regular season. Rays fans would have rather seen Ryan Thompson, a fresher (and more effective) righty who relies on his sinker and slider.

@@ooogyman Yeah but how can you as a manager in the Workd Series ignore the fact that Mookie was atrocious vs lefties and mvp level vs righties all season and pull your lefty former cy winner who’s been lights out all game for a righty no matter who it is

@@ooogyman the call to take Snell out is complete and utter befundment and wrong every which way. Game 2. 88 pitches 4 bb Game 6. 73 pitches 0 bb 88 pitches is almost two more innings of work if you are dealing. This is called, they weren't really watching the ballgame. You can just watch and know if something is going to happen. These are all major leaguers there is no excuse to be seeing. Side note: all of this is mute if you were being sarcastic about it

Tbh Jomboy’s analytics are biased because pitchers have a higher chance of facing the lineup a third time through if they already do good against the second time. So what Jomboy should’ve done is looked at second time through stats in games pitchers pitched to batters a third time vs third time through stats. That being said, I still think it was a bad move.

@eoe123321 The A's learns this the hard way plenty of times especially.

Excellent point.

That’s the difference between a smart old school manager like Bochy who is intelligent enough to go with his gut and know what passes the eye test. Vs a new school manager driven by bullshit analytics.

Yeah he might have lost the vote last night. I think he still deserves it, but this is the final image left in everyone's head.

No he was a trash cat her who couldnt hit or throw runners out at 2nd. He was demoted to 2nd string on a devil rays team that lost 105 games. He micro manges to much, and the players deserve all the credit, Cash got lucky his front office knows how to draft and get pitching prospects

@@tinypoolmodelshipyard I assume you don’t know how baseball works. By your logic half the other managers in the league are lucky their teams can pay big contracts to big names.

If Snell was kept in the game and continued his dominance, the game could’ve ended 1-0.

More like they checked out early after doing the bare minimum, but that might have been all that was needed!

They still had the lead regardless if it's only 1 run. The Dodgers had O runs up until that point for a reason, and kevin cash fucked up. The game could've gone a big way for either team if snell was kept in, but we'll never know because of a horrific managerial decision

People just like being hateful together. No big deal. It makes them feel like they fit in. Cash aint goin anywhere it was a perfectly reasonable move by the managers.

You're not gonna beat the Dodgers with only 1 run, most times, if so the best chance was to leave the guy pitching one of the best games the whole post season, in...

Oh yeah putting him behind a cable subscription and commercial breaks is exactly what we want.

@@doohuh fine have him replace Joe Buck.

That would make too much sense, therefore, it will never happen.

Pretty sure in this case that wouldn't have worked. If a manager approaches the mound for a visit and raises an arm, he is officially signaling a pitching change. I could be wrong - I'm no rules expert - but no matter how adament the SP's refusal, the change is official and he must be removed from the game

Andrew, I believe it is just like a batter. It has to be officially announced.

@@alexsexton2547 ok but then the arm signal from the manager is that announcement right? Otherwise there'd be dozens/hundreds of times a season where the manager first goes to the umpire to announce a pitcher change to make it official. I've never seen a manager go to an umpire first - you always see them go to the mound. Sometimes if they know they're changing pitchers no matter what, they'll signal the change via raising the appropriate arm. Or if they might want to change but don't know for sure yet, they'll go out for a visit and then if they decide to make a change then they'll signal that change by raising the appropriate arm.

Scherzer would’ve thrown hands at Cash if he tried to pull him out
